Abstract
A die transfer system comprises a pair of elongated, horizontally extending vertically movable rails having a plurality of rollers thereon. A pair of elastomeric elements have a vertical dimension and elastic coefficient such that the rolls on said rails are elevated above an upper surface of said bolster to a die transfer condition. Biasing of said die toward said bolster effects deflection of said elastomeric elements. Release of said biasing means permits elevation of said rails, rollers and die to said die transfer condition due to elastic memory of said elements.
